OK, if you have two nics on server A with crossover cables to two nics on server b, it will be no different than if they were connected with a hub, bridge or switch. They each need their own small IP address nets. Then, why should IPMP care what the network fabric is?

I am not personally experienced with crossover cables. I heard that it can be hard to get them to behave if one server is powered off, but perhaps some nic firmware has stepped up to this. It seems like a frequently overlooked inexpensive and fast network fabric, with no collisions and in full duplex with not much length limitation. NICs are cheap, and wire is far cheaper than gigabit switches! You might run out of slots after a while. There is much need for this sort of bandwidth with high performance SAN and RDBMS client-server configurations.

Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm)

NAME

	 Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle - An oracle specific Handle object

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a subclass of Jifty::DBI::Handle that compensates for some of the idiosyncrasies of Oracle.

METHODS

   connect PARAMHASH: Driver, Database, Host, User, Password
       Takes a paramhash and connects to your DBI datasource.

   database_version
       Returns value of ORA_OCI constant, see "Constants" in DBD::Oracle.

   insert
       Takes a table name as the first argument and assumes that the rest of the arguments are an array of key-value pairs to be inserted.

   build_dsn PARAMHASH
       Takes a bunch of parameters:

       Required: Driver, Database or Host/SID, Optional: Port and RequireSSL

       Builds a dsn suitable for an Oracle DBI connection

   blob_params column_NAME column_type
       Returns a hash ref for the bind_param call to identify BLOB types used by the current database for a particular column type.  The current
       Oracle implementation only supports ORA_CLOB types(112).

   apply_limits STATEMENTREF ROWS_PER_PAGE FIRST_ROW
       takes an SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return ROWS_PER_PAGE starting with FIRST_ROW;

   distinct_query STATEMENTREF
       takes an incomplete SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return a DISTINCT result set.
